The Horse Prayer

Im only a hore dear master, but my heart is warm and true

and im willing to work my hardest for the pleasure of pleasing you.

Good corn and hay and water are all that i wish to ask,

and a warm dry bed to rest on when iv finished my daily task.

Dont strike me in careless anger if im slow to understand

but encourage my drooping spirits with a gentle voice and hand.

And finally oh master, when i am old and feeble and my long life’s work is done,

dont sell me to cruel owners to be slaved till my last breath,

but grant me the untold blessing of a quick and painless death.

That as you have always found me a loyal and faithful friend,

my years of faithful service may be crowned by a peaceful end.

I plead in the name of the Saviour, who cares when sparrows fall…who was born in a lowly stable and who knows and loves us all.
